Trump has literally put together an all star team of cretins

Starr spent some time as the president of Baylor University, a job he lost after a report demonstrated that his administration showed a fundamental failure in responding to sexual assaults, including an epidemic of cases involving players on the school's football team. Ray went on to be arrested for stalking in 2006.

Sekulow hosts a call-in radio show and has been on Trump's legal team since at least 2017, making him the longest-standing member of that team. As part of his legal defense, Sekulow got the president to approve an arrangement for the president's former lawyer, John Dowd, to represent Lev Parnas, an indicted associate of Trump lawyer Rudy Guliani.

penning what has to be the most unhinged letter in the history of the OLC, a legal argument that basically amounted to a "witch hunt!" Cipollone's strategy, which entails refusing to comply with every single lawful subpoena the impeachment inquiry has issued for the White House, resulted in a second impeachment count against Donald Trump, obstruction of Congress

he has come under scrutiny for his work representing now-deceased serial sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. One of Epstein's accusers also accused Dershowitz of sexual assault, a charge he denies. Dershowitz has said he received a massage at Epstein's house, which was one of the bases of Epstein's trafficking, but insists he kept my underwear on during the massage

Meet Trump’s deplorable impeachment defense team.

Its really hard to pick the worst one. The stalker one is cleary the worst human there but I'm going to have to say Starr. He suddenly believes in impeachment is bad combined with the Baylor scandal. I'm surprised Weinstein didnt hire him. Wait, he can afford a good attorney.
 
Don't forget Alan Dershowitz. I'm sure he's a deplorable as well.

Where were you when Mueller hired a bunch of Clinton people for his (supposedly neutral) investigation?

Republicans literally picked the face of the two most unpopular legal teams in history. The Clinton impeachment coup and the OJ defense team. :lol:

They may be but, they have one common denominator, they won.

Alan Derschowitz strives to defend the most notorious, most high profile clients that money can buy like O.J. Simpson, Mike Tyson, Michael Milken and Jeffrey Epstein. I'm sure he's salivating at the chance to defend Trump.
 
If things go as I suspect the Dems will lose the House over this. As more and more people flee Democrat strongholds (such as NY & CA) normal people in the rest of the country increase their electoral college advantage.

What did Starr win? Wasn’t he run out of Baylor after WJC was acquitted?
 
JEREMY STAHL is a propagandist who masquerades as a journalist. His opinions are more than a little suspect and hold no merit with me.

He supports the Rule of Law and the Constitution and has been openly critical of the entire process to date. It does not hurt that Trump is genuinely innocent of the charges.

He was a well respected Judge. Baylor came several years later.

Dershowitz is a DEMOCRAT, too. The other two guys are fantastic choices as well. NO ONE knows the constitution better than Dersh

Why can't he find somebody without ties to Epstein? Why? Dershowitz seems like a total scumbag.

Ya, I thought it odd that he left Dershowitz out - ESPECIALLY because he is the one that is going to do all the oral arguments on the constitutional requirements. He may be the one opening the defense.

Unless Dersh and Starr skills are severely eroded by age, as was poor Mueller, those two make for some pretty daunting team members. Too bad they didn't get Turley as well, that tri-fecta would have been perfect.

I'm thrilled with this team. Couldn't be better. No one will mess with them. Speaking of coups, this was one.

Yep a regular reality show just like our president.

I don't think it's going to go as you suspect though.

It's yet more evidence that top-talent, white shoe lawfirm lawyers will never work with twump, and it's as comic as a fully engulfed clown car flying off a cliff.
 
Trump wins again just like with China and Iran things will get back to normal. Hope it doesn't take too long. And what's up with Pelosi's eyebrows they look like they were drawn on with a Sharpie.

Dershowitz is renowned by most all as being an expert on constitutional law. He's a Democrat too and still is, even though he is disgusted with his party. Starr? He s a star. I actually thought he went too far in the Clinton impeachment veering into areas not originally intended. But you need a guy like him. He will leave no stone un-turned. Sekulow? Why not?

TYou don't really think he was going to get Avenatti and Napalitano, did you? Ole Nappy is prolly majorly pissed he was passed over and will go on TV now saying Trump is guilty.

I think that's due to the skin behind her neck being pulled taught when they do her face-lifts. I understand that she has had so many of them, she has a "bun" behind her neck from all the skin being pulled back so many times. The doctors just wadded it up into a ball.
 
Its a shame Johnny Cochrane isn't alive.Trump could use him.If The Democrats are full of it you must acquit.

Except, of course, that he's not a trial lawyer and he's making legal arguments with absolutely no precedence, based on nothing. Starr is a mendacious, incompetent clown, who got booted from Baylor because of covering up sexual abuse and Sekulow is the same, only wearing an obvious veneer of being a Christian whose got his own skeletons from financially abusing his charity and he's not a criminal attorney. He's not a defense attorney. He's got no experience or specialty in litigating the legal privileges of a president.

Flaming. Clown. Car.
